Advanced Heart Failure Treatment

Advanced heart failure treatment involves specialized options for patients whose hearts can no longer pump blood effectively, despite medications. These include devices like ventricular assist devices (VADs) that support or replace heart function, and heart transplantation for eligible individuals. Additional strategies may involve implantable devices to regulate heart rhythm, tailored medication plans, and careful management by a team of specialists. The goal is to improve symptoms, enhance quality of life, and extend survival when standard treatments are insufficient. Each approach is personalized based on the patient’s health status and specific needs.
